David Perkins developed a theory of learnable intelligence that describes intelligence as having three dimensions: neural intelligence which is the brain's ability to learn and understand, experiential intelligence which grows from life experiences, and reflective intelligence which involves thinking about one's own thinking. The theory posits that intelligence can be learned through study, instruction, and gaining awareness from experiences over time as reflective intelligence builds on the other two dimensions.
